Democrats bit the dust, a hint of what November will bring...

How long was that seat liberal-democrat? 46 years or more? Well,
tells you what people think about Obamanomics, liberal
corruption-debt-spend and liberal health care tax grab.

Obama's honeymoon just ended with one year in office. One year of
Ombama has democrats voting republican. LMAO.

Some democrat aught to email this to Obama:

The Dems can still put the bill through with the "reconciliation" clause
which requires a vote of 51, so the fat lady hasn't sung yet. It WILL
be interesting now to see the tap-dancing and posturing of Democrats who
are up for re-election. Some have already declared, "I'm out of here"
and won't be running. They are smart men who know they can take their
spoils and retire comfortably. The greedy and stupid will stay, and
take what they get. An armed insurrection is in order to clean the
Halls of Congress.

You really ought to run for congress, Steve. I don't know anyone in
rec.boats who has a better take on things. We really need to promote
people who don't have big lips, bulging eyes and nappy hair.

I'm with ya when you decide to run.

I have C More flagged, but shall answer to the comments anyway. I wouldn't
consider running for office because of the same reason any top exec won't.
If you're a good exec, you go in the first day, and like the new alpha male
lion in a pride, you kill all the cubs of the previous alpha male. Then you
fire people left and right who can't justify their presence. Then you
analyze each department and start chopping. The system won't allow anyone
who knows anything about business to do this. And I mean people like truck
drivers and hairdressers who have a better grasp of the "system" then the
people running this ship. They know that they have to make do on what comes
in, and that even stuff bought on promise of future payments has to be paid
for at some time.

Besides they, like me, wouldn't tolerate the pay cut.

Steve ;-)


Hey Steve, you and I could probably make this league.


A new professional basketball league, planned for launch in twelve
cities, will only include white males who are born in the U.S. Don
"Moose" Lewis announced the All-American Basketball Alliance just a
day before Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

"Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both
parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league,"
according to a press release, distributed Sunday.

Lewis denies that he a racist but he wants to get away from "street
ball" played by "people of color" that dominate the NBA. "Would you
want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or
attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?" he said.

The Augusta Chronicle talked to Lewis Monday.

"There's nothing hatred about what we're doing," he said. "I don't
hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are
in the minority now. Here's a league for white players to play
fundamental basketball, which they like."

Lewis said he wants to emphasize fundamental basketball instead of
"street-ball" played by "people of color." He pointed out recent
incidents in the NBA, including Gilbert Arenas' indefinite suspension
after bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room, as
examples of fans' dissatisfaction with the way current professional
sports are run.

Not surprisingly, not everyone is happy about the idea of a "whites
only" league. Augusta Mayor Deke Copenhaver says the league isn't
welcome in his city.

"As a sports enthusiast, I have always supported bringing more
sporting activities to Augusta," said Deke. "However, in this instance
I could not support in good conscience bringing in a team that did not
fit with the spirit of inclusiveness that I, along with many others,
have worked so hard to foster in our city."
